Cobbler's Song: TOM MAKEM

Mountain Dew: PAT CLANCY
Accompanied by Tom Makem on the penny-whistle and Pete Seeger, banjo

Sleeve Notes (Excerpts)

Irish song and lore were eloquently represented at Newport by TOMMY MAKEM. Steeped in the musical and poetical tradition of the Gael, he is an artist as indigenous to his world as Big Bill Broonzy was to his. He is an actor as well as a singer; the two crafts are juicily fused in the songs. No "prettiness", no pretense in his performance, he reveals himself; and in a larger sense, his verdant heritage. PATRICK CLANCY about whom all this is equally true, is heard here in "Mountain Dew.”
